WSOP Live! by Texter

So I read on some forums that worldseriesofpoker.com was going to show the webcast Final Table of the Ladies only event for free; normally you pay a $49.95 to get access to watch all of the final tables they are showing. They must not be doing particulary well since they offered this up as a free sample. I can't see too many people coughing up the cash after last night's table.

That final table was the most boring final table I've ever seen, most of the women were playing ABC poker and were extremely passive....even when they were on extremely short stacks. One woman folded AcKc to a short stacks allin bet, and another folded JJ to a raise and a call. The entire night was...fold...fold...fold...one player raises...fold...fold...fold... over and over and over, one woman had AA and everyone folded to her HUGE raise...then she got AA again and the announcers figured she would limp or raise smallish to try and get action...nope...she raised the same amount again and everyone folded.

Even the announcers were bored, and they're being paid to watch the event. There was virtually no trapping or bluffing whatsoever...it was brutal. It took several hours to get from 6 players to 5; eventually, the blinds got so big that it was just an allin fest.

Sorry ladies, but this event was awful. Even the lovely Liz Lieu as guest host couldn't save it.
